De Rossi Set to Return to Rome

Daniele De Rossi is scheduled to return to Rome tomorrow as the future of the Italian international remains in limbo. De Rossi has been the subject of constant transfer rumors for several years, but this season feels different as several media outlets continue to report that Jose Mourinho wants the midfielder in London. Rudi Garcia, however, has personally requested to the management that De Rossi stays at Roma, insisting that a midfield of De Rossi, Strootman, and Pjanic could become one of the strongest in Italy.

Italian journalist Tancredi Palmeri reported this morning that if a bid of €15m were to arrive for “Capitan Futuro”, then the management would agree to sell the midfielder.
